    Supercharger - Kalispell, MT (under construction Apr 2024, 8 V4 stalls)

    Unless they fixed the Town Pump CCS Chargepoint units recently, don't count on those. I arrived late (after 2AM) two weeks ago and was unable to charge. The failed charge sessions also caused my charge port to be unusable at any charger (L2/L3) until the next day, after the car had gone into...

    Wiki Model X Refresh Issues Thread

    Great. Picked up my new MXP to drive to Glacier NP and I’m currently stuck up here with a charge port that won’t work. Only shows blue and no charger will work. Roadside says they’ll only cover 200 miles and it’s a 250+ mile tow to the nearest service center (which is nowhere near home). A...

    Supercharger - Kalispell, MT (under construction Apr 2024, 8 V4 stalls)

    You can get them from Harum.io straight from Korea. I've ordered a few from them. Works just fine with all of the CCS chargers I've tried in the US so far.

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    That's a bummer. I really wanted a 5 seater, but took the $6500 comp because I had paid for the base model MXP. Would be terrible if I had ordered a 7 seater, gotten downgraded to a 6 and then still had to pay for the 7 seater option. :confused:

    They just assigned a ton of VINs the past week or so. Guessing that was it for now and they'll pick up production on MS/MX later in the year? Hopefully it's not because of some issues with the assembly lines for those models (which would mean some potential issues for my MXP that is being...

    Wiki Model X Refresh Issues Thread

    Ugh that's what I'm afraid of on my MXP that I'm taking delivery of on Friday. I had an alignment issue (pulls to the right) on my current MYLR which was adjusted by SC. Things worked for a few months, then I had my tires rotated recently and things seem to be back to pulling to the right again...

    That's crazy. I'm definitely seeing lots of people with MYP getting lower than expected trade-in offers. I can't believe I'll be netting a $2k profit (after taxes, fees) for driving a car around 42,000 miles last year...

    Electrify America general discussion

    I live in WA and lots of the super rural ones are like $0.48/kW now after recent price increases. Definitely planning on using my Tesla CCS1 adapter for most of my fast charging on road trips from here on out. I'm hoping EA doesn't raise their prices anytime soon. :p

    Yeah at that point you might be losing that $0.01 difference/kWh if you aren't properly preconditioned.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    Tested the CCS adapter out yesterday on a 50kW ABB unit that also has a CHAdeMO connector. The charge profile felt a bit quicker than the CHAdeMO on ramping up to 45kW or so (my battery was around 11% SoC at the beginning of the charge). I'll have to do some more testing, but so far, it's a...

    Eh, they're getting paid a fixed USD amount. With the recent depreciation in Korean Won, they're making more money as time goes on and the Won depreciates more.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    20% is steep for just PayPal and exchange rate fees. PayPal fees for the merchant should be under 3% and exchange rate fees are usually around 1.5%. Either way, not a bad price.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    The Harumio surcharge is a bit more than their $5 fee. At current exchange rates, the adapter is only $237. That means they're charging the $5 service fee, on top of a roughly $50 profit. Still very reasonable, but not $5.

    Supercharger - Superior, MT

    I recall using this very integral SC last May for my trip to Glacier NP, so I'm glad to hear it's still there and operational. Was doing my planning for this May's trip using the stupid Tesla Find Us maps and was wondering why there was such a big gap between Coeur d'Alene and Missoula...

    If you had read through subsequent thread posts that I made, you'd find that yes, I did receive the adapter. I just re-enabled 2 factor auth after the order was placed. You can change your password back once the order is placed.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    Yep most EA chargers are software limited to 350A. This means that cars that aren't 800V architecture likely won't be able to hit anything over 157.5kW or so (350A * 450V pack voltage).

    It took about 2 days from when my order was placed (in the morning Korea time) to when it was received by Harumio. The status on the Tesla webpage never updated to include a tracking number just FYI.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    My order from Harumio was just delivered via Fedex. All in all, it only took a week to order and receive the item. Excited to go try this out on some CCS chargers and then sell my CHAdeMO adapter for a handsome profit.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    Nice! Looks like mine landed in ANC already. My guess is that it'll be in my hands in one more day. You can ask them to ship via Fedex or DHL btw. I asked for Fedex as they typically have access to my building.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    $1 is hopefully when the J-1772 adapter's like $50. My bet is it'll come out (when it does) for ~$350.

    AC Hotels are in the trash hotel tier if someone is considering Editions (which are flagship Marriott properties)...:p I'm sure if you call the Edition and let them know when you're coming in, they'll be more than happy to hold the charger for you (assuming nobody else has done so).

    That would be good for the chargers that have CCS disabled. I know some of the dealership ABB units are setup this way.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    The better option IMO is to pickup a CCS adapter for $280-330 or so, sell your CHAdeMO for ~$400-450 on eBay and net some cash. That's my plan once the CCS adapter arrives.

    Just had Harum.io place an order for me and it cost $323.63.

    Yep, newer EVgo stations will have Tesla plugs built in. There is one near me in the downtown Seattle area, and I noticed quite a few in SF when I was there last month.

    CCS Adapter for North America

    No Tesla plug unfortunately. Hopefully this charger is still running and free when I'm out in the area next month for a few weeks! Spent 2 weeks last year in the area and had to rely on L2 charging, which was annoying.

    Which price increase? The most recent? I'd love to trade my Plaid for a LR that was locked in at the $89,990 price! :p I don't even really want a 6 seater. Will probably just end up selling it, as the price increases and the $6500 credit were a nice hook-up. 🤷‍♂️

    Yeah unfortunately that's the Tesla way. I just regret not ordering a LR 5 seater before all of the price increases.
